Neuse River Retreat
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful cabin. Terry is an exceptional host, she went above and beyond to accommodate a special request and made sure we had everything we could possibly need and more for the perfect stay. The surroundings are beautiful and the cabin is so charming. We would absolutely book again and recommend anyone else to do so!

Family friendly, cheerful, 3 bedroom w pool access
Wonderful location in Fairfield Harbour! Just 1 block to the neighborhood pool, where hosts Terri & David arranged free passes for us to swim. This home suited our needs perfectly while in town to attend a sailing regatta. We really enjoyed our stay so close to the marina, and look forward to returning for the next regatta!

Harborview Cottage at the WYCC
Great place. Right next to clubhouse. Being able to use the club amenities is a major plus. Had a round of golf which was great. Nice view of the marina. Not busy even on Memorial Day. Good value. Would book again.

Pool&Beach|Gameroom|View|Gym
The house exceeded our expectations. There is beach equipment/towels available for guests, along with a rise off area by the garage. The kitchen is fully stocked compared to other air bnbs I've stayed in. Check in/check out is super easy and the responsive hosts created a helpful guidebook to answer all questions and even included restaurant/activity recommendations. The walk to the beach access was much shorter than we thought from the map view, so this is a perfect location in vicinity to the beach. The house was spotless when we arrived, all of the linens are high quality and cleaned very well. The mattresses and pillows were also extremely comfy! We've decided that Topsail will be our regular beach spot and we'll be staying here whenever possible!!

Alex Moore House (Fri to Fri weekly bookings)
Our stay at Alex Moore was beyond my expectation! We had fantastic time, the place felt like home. It is quaint, cozy, beautiful and super clean. The location is perfect. It is within walking distance to the intercoastal, we can walk to many good restaurants, we can watch boats and enjoy life music. The bonus is this house is located in quiet neighborhood. The house has everything we need, very clean and modern kitchen! My children really enjoyed the pool and media room. We can drive 10 minutes to Emerald Isle and with the free parking provided, we were able to avoid the crowded area. Mike is a great host, we appreciate his hospitality and professionalism. We plan to rent this place again if we go to NC. Thank you for making our vacation more memorable and enjoyable.

Coastal Retreat on Waterway w/Hot Tub
We had a wonderful stay! The property was peaceful and private with a beautiful view right next to the canal. My kids especially had a blast fishing off the dock — it quickly became their favorite part of the trip. The setting was perfect for relaxing and spending quality time together. We would definitely love to come back!

Welcome to Sailors' Haven
Our Children are sailors and this place was a perfect fit that was better than described. The personal touches and amenities for our family will have us back on the next trip. We have a child at Camp Seagull and this made our drop off seamless while being able to check out the local community within close walking distance. Community was super friendly and Lisa was an amazing host! We’ll be back!

Golden Sands Getaway
We had a fantastic time staying here! From the moment we walked in we were greeted with a nice open layout and fully stocked kitchen/bathroom. There were numerous towels and bed sheets available, along with beach toys, umbrellas and a wagon. The kitchen area offered a full size fridge, air fryer, and griddle for ease of cooking. The bathroom was stocked with toothbrushes/ toothpaste, shampoo, body wash and conditioner. The beach was easily walkable from the location and had a pool and grill area right outside. The owner was extremely helpful in all areas, and allowed us to contact him when we needed. I would absolutely stay here again!

Pet Friendly! - Close to Downtown New Bern!
Enjoyed our stay, house was great and only a short drive to everything. Almost walking distance to the wedding venue we were attending. Would book here again our next time in New Bern

Located Downtown! Walk to dining and shopping!
Fantastic place, really feels like a home and not a generic rental place. The kitchen is stocked with every appliance you could ever think of. The train running out front is great for kids (runs daytime on weekdays only). Beds are massive and comfortable, the house is well insulated and fairly soundproofed, and the side porch is great for coffee and people watching. Location is great, right on the edge of all the restaurants and bars with an open grassy area on one side and quiet neighbor on the other. Highly recommend!

Breathe Inn - Neuse River Tranquility
Our stay was so wonderful I need more stars. In town for my father’s memorial service, Megan’s home was the perfect blend of cozy warmth and spaciousness for our immediate family of five adults, and became the hub of extended family meals. For which reason the easy functionality of the kitchen is of note - it is well equipped and three of us could work in it at once without feeling like we were running from pillar to post. It’s an easy hop, skip and a jump from river serenity into historic New Bern and its restaurants, nightlife, and blocks and blocks of lovely old homes to walk and explore, and the highway out to the beaches. Megan is a kind and generous host who I hope to meet on a less busy future visit. We hope to make Breathe Inn (so well named!) our home away when in New Bern.

Historic Heath House steps from the Neuse River
We thoroughly enjoyed this home and will rent it every time we return to New Bern. Peter was terrific, sent highly detailed instructions and information before we arrived that made our start of vacation seamless. I highly recommend this location.

Clean relaxing fully furnished 3 bedrooom Deal
very clean beautiful decor great location would love to stay again next year

The Oasis - 3 Bedrooms*Pet Friendly* Private Yard
Dena's place was everything and then more. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening in the fully fenced in backyard where it was helpful to let our pup free to run around and entertain in. The house was clean, it had everything that we needed, from the toiletries to the soft comfortable beds, it was a cozy and relaxing stay. Dena was responsive, friendly and super flexible to our needs. We are already planning our next time there. 5 stars all the way around.

545 Family Farms
Such a sweet home, Ganelle truly thought of everything. Every little inch of her home is decorated so tastefully. It was spotless and cozy upon arrival, she even had the faux fireplace and some creek side sounds playing when we got there. We were grateful for the spare room/chair beds, and I’m headed home to buy a new mattress just like the one in Room 1 😊 so comfortable! Our kids also enjoyed the toy/game cabinet - such a nice little touch that most people don’t bother with. Thanks so much for a great family stay!

Village Home Too
John was an amazing host. His communication was always clear with specific instructions that made check in and check out a breeze. He was very accommodation with requests and very quick to respond. The house was emasculate and situated in a peaceful neighborhood. I felt right at home. I only wished I could have stayed longer. Would definitely recommend.

Couple of Pisces - On the Ocean
Such a fantastic place, right on the beach! They have everything you need, including wake boards, chairs, umbrella. Just a beautiful place on the ocean!!! My second time back, and I'll go a third!!

Elegant Historic Home with Grand Front Porch
We loved our stay here. We all felt right at home. The location can't be beat - only 5 minutes by car to downtown New Bern and all of the sights. This is a nice historic neighborhood and we enjoyed time on the big front porch and the back porch. I really appreciated that there were LOTS of Keurig pods, including decaf! No need to buy coffee although there was also a standard coffee pot in the cabinet if you have a different preference. There was one comment in our group that the downstairs bed was too soft for her preference but that everything else was perfect. The upstairs bed was perfect for us. The little nook in the front of the upstairs hallway was a great place for a book and morning coffee while everyone else was still sleeping. This home has a great combination of spaces for time together and apart. Kitchen had everything we needed. And we appreciated having access to local channels to watch the NCAA championship. You really can't go wrong with this beautiful home!

We call it The Point….
Absolutely gorgeous property. Well worth the money. Peacefulness and tranquility. Felt like I was home!! The bed was so comfortable. Love the co host Mr Cat.

Humble Home
Outstanding stay!!! Can’t wait to come back!

New Bern Getaway * Less than 15 mins from downtown
Kelsey was super responsive and communicated very clearly.

Havelock Haven
Very clean, was as described. Safe, calm neighborhood. Plenty of space, extra towels, and easy, simple check out. We would definitely stay again if in the area

Min to Base+Shops+Parks+Patio+3 TVs
The townhome is very cozy and was the perfect place for me and my children to stay. Aurelie is very kind, informed me of local current events that were happening (blueberry picking), as well as checked in with me from time to time to make sure things were all good!!

Waterfront*Private Dock*Pet-Friendly*Kayaks
This is the best Airbnb I have ever stayed at! My friends and I absolutely loved everything about it. The hosts were very responsive and kind enough to fix a mistake I made with the initial booking. The house was beautiful and in a great spot. The waterfront was gorgeous and we loved the kayaks. Can't wait to stay there again!
